**Book Three of the 2016 Rainbow Award winning series**

Carivel, Andoc, and Senovo have refused to let circumstances tear them away from each other. Draebard’s tribal chieftain does not approve of Andoc’s decision to continue with the unconventional relationship, and now, on top of everything else, war is looming after the combined forces of Draebard and Meren destroyed the Alyrion Empire’s military outpost in northern Eburos. Senovo and Carivel have long relied on Andoc to be their rock. Their touchstone. But when Andoc’s future is shattered by betrayal and life-changing injury, it will fall to both of them to give the big-hearted warrior a new reason to live.

Captivating and emotional, The Horse Mistress: Book 3 explores themes of loss and desperate hope against seemingly insurmountable odds.
